It’s the first day of September that means Mahalaya is in about a couple of weeks and that marks the onset of the great Indian festive season. Keeping the unfavourable situation in mind, I am assuming most of us are not yet ready for the festivities which is quite normal! In today’s post, I will be showing you how you can make your existing outfit festive enough to rock the upcoming celebrations.

I have always believed in ‘less is more’. My wardrobe is always full of things I actually wear (despite a few). I am definitely not a hoarder when it comes to clothes. So, most of the time I am either repeating my outfits which you must know if you follow me on Instagram or I mix and match and honestly, that is my favourite thing to do especially with ethnic wear. If you think creatively, making an ethnic outfit from scratch isn’t that tough. All you need is a plain solid coloured kurta or tunic and a gorgeous dupatta like the one I got from Omgee Fashions. To make it all a little more put together, add some statement earring (they can never go wrong!), make a sleek hairstyle and throw on some of your favourite makeup and voila! You are ready to rock. Now, here are some pictures of how my look turned out to be.

They say, “Give a girl the right shoes and she’ll conquer the world”. I am pretty sure what they mean by ‘right shoes’ is shoes that are comfortable. As a blogger, I always feel the need to be in the perfect pair of shoes that will look stylish but won’t give me blisters and shoe bites. I have been to events wearing a stylish, classy pair of stilettos only to come back home with a wounded pair of feet that would ache through the week. I feel I would be the happiest wearing my slippers wherever I go but that can’t happen, right? That is why I am always looking for shoes that are comfortable, not irritating, and shoes that I don’t feel like removing after an hour. They also need to be stylish so that I can pair them with anything stylish. Happenstance has got my back!

Key Features of Happenstance footwear

Now, let me focus on the key features of this footwear that I have seen from my experiences.

Comfort within Budget-

It’s not always easy to find a perfectly comfortable pair of footwear within budget but now you won’t have to worry about that. Happenstance has an array of shoes that are comfortable like any high-end brand and at the same time they don’t burn a hole in your pocket, unlike others. The price range is from 999 to 1299 which is such a steal deal for me considering the material and features they have to offer.

Check out their website here.

Huge Variety of Stylish Footwear to Men & Women-

If you assumed that the fact that Happenstance focuses on comfort and affordability compromised on the variety and looks of the product then you are certainly under a wrong impression. Happenstance has a huge variety of footwear for both men and women that are scientifically made for comfort yet they have kept an eye on the looks so that they can cater to modern-day necessities as well.

They have three different styles of footwear for women- Sandals, Shoes and Ballet Flats and for men, they have only one category as of now and that is Sandals.

Suitable for Both Indian & Western Wear-

We often get confused when we have to pair one particular footwear with our western and Indian outfits but the ones from Happenstance are fitting for both. You can mix and match them with any ethnic or fusion outfit and it will give it a smart and trendy look without making it too obvious. You can refer to the styling I have done with the brick coloured Ballet flats.

The Science behind Happenstance Shoes-

Happenstance shoes are meticulously made for right fit and comfort. All their shoes are mainly built with comfortable footbeds or insoles which are soft enough to absorb shock on impact and sturdy yet bouncy midsole and outsole that is firm enough to spring back with each step for enhanced responsiveness. The soles of the footwear are airy light that results in great cushioning, flexibility and fit.

The knitted covers of the shoes and ballet flats are specially designed for breathability and grip for ultimate comfort. The material makes for a super stretchy fabric that hugs your feet for a perfect fit. The snugness of the knit top works like a second skin for your feet and gives you maximum flexibility.

I would also want to talk about the quality of the materials here. The Velcro used in the GRACE sandals that I have is of great quality. It keeps my feet in place and stays put regardless of the intensity of activities. The straps are also very sturdy and ensure great fit and comfort. The soft straps with velvety finish give it a stylish look.

The textured insole gives a proper grip to your feet and also ensures long-wear without making the feet uncomfortable or tired.

The second pair, BLOOM, is great for both ethnic and western outfits. You can mix and match with anything I want. The colour is a classy red which can be a statement in itself. The multi-layered

sole ensures maximum flexibility and support. Talking about flexibility, I would like to tell you that this shoe is so flexible that it can be folded in half so easily.

Final Words

Overall, I want to say that Happenstance is a brand that I can now trust blindfolded. The comfort, the style and flexibility of the shoes are unmatched and cannot be found in ordinary brands. The product they offer within such a price is unbelievable. Their footwear is great if you are looking for effortless styling. It is a must-have for all of us who are looking for daily wear stylish shoes. I highly recommend them.

A simply tailored blouse goes perfectly well with the sarees that are worn on a daily basis or for any occasion. Altering the neckline of blouses and sleeve highlights the attire. The addition of the tassel, brooch, lace, piping, and button adds to its grace. Intricate works of sequins, embroidery, patches, net and other pattern accentuates even the simplest blouse. The snazzy ladies are bent towards the traditional attires and the designers are not leaving any stone unturned to tweak the outfit. A sensuous and lavish look to the saree makes sure to steal the show. The latkans with knotted dors act as a beautiful rear neckpiece.
